Perfect! Let's get started!
Interjection? What an ugly name. Right? But ugly or not tough, interjections exist in all languages.
Basically, an interjection is one or several words that can express some kind of emotion:
- amazement
- surprise
- sorrow
- and so on
Okay, let’s see some examples:
Aha! Oh! Huh? Stop! Ow! Good!
These are all interjections. An interjection can be used as a filler. They are very important in spoken language because the conversation becomes more natural.
Let’s start with some examples:
If you hurt yourself, you could say:
"Ouch! That hurt."
"Darn! That hurt."
"Gee! That hurt!"
Well, as you can see, the possibilities here are endless.
